Ageniaa - ♀ Faerie Shoyru - TRADED
My good friend Sunny gave me one of her RW pets when she quit to trade for a pretty pet. I had intended to trade for a Darigan Zafara; but the owner of the specific pet I wanted was being a greedy little twit; so instead I traded for a WNed grey Acara; which I traded to Nadia for Geni. (she had offered her Mara Hissi for Geni; and traded the Acara for a Faerie Wocky)

Dragox - ⚧ Robot Draik - TRADED
I traded an UC 5l RW/N for Dragox, and I have continuously trained him (not full speed) since I got him. He has a decent set for the battledome and farms nerks for me well.
In August 2018, after I'd owned him for about 18 months or so; I misclicked and accidentally morphed him into a Blue Xweetok. Luckily, someone took pity on me, and used their Charity Corner perk to return him to Robot form.

Draiqh - ♀ Faerie X Draik - CREATED
The Draik that started it all, she started out as a FFQ dream, a Maraquan Draik and stayed that way for 3 years, then I spent over 8m to cross paint her with almost every color that had clothes before using the Faerie paint brush.

Rosemmary - ♀ Faerie X Krawk - GIFTED
Mary is actually one of the reasons I still play the game. She was a suprise from my Avatarable guildies (prior to the mass deflation) She was my alter ego on the site, but I chose to take her character in a slightly different direction (who really wants to read about a homeschool mom?).

Rulinian - ♂ Darigan Krawk - TRADED
Ruli is actually the 3rd iteration of this character. The first being a FFQ custom, the second being a RW, but I feel this name fits it best. He was apparently very loved by his first owner, as you can search his name and come up with some really cool art. I stumbled upon a board on the PC offering him on return from hiatus, and snatched him up.

Thessalonike - ♀ Maraquan Hissi - ADOPTED
I adopted Thessa after stumbling across one of the most epic Unconverted Maraquan Hissi ever.... Draconzi. His owner has dedicated so much to his character, art, and page, and I was just amazed. Because I had no pets I was willing to trade, and I just don't have the patience and drive to trade up from nothing, I made my Sea Queen. Her name is the half-sister of Alexander, and her story stems from Greek mythology regarding her death and becoming a mermaid.

Tylinulous - ♂ Maraquan Hissi - TRADED
As mentioned with Thessa, I had stumbled upon Draconzi, and had kind of become obsessed with him. An old friend of mine had recently surfaced around that time, and decided they weren't going to stick around, so gave me their BNed UC Desert Aisha so I could trade for my own Sea Snek. Between some good luck and my project page (turned petpage!) I managed to bring home Tylin very quickly due some good luck on shuffle boards on the PC.

Draiera - ♀ Water Draik - CREATED
When I started my quest of changing all my avatar pets to Draiks instead; Draiera was one of the first ones I made when I had made some space. Her name originated from the Greek myth of Graeae.

Draikyla - ♀ Eventide Draik - POUND FIND
I had adopted another Draik as eventide with the name of Diamei, which I adopted to my friend Kate. If you haven't noticed yet; most of my Draiks start with *Dra* so when I spotted this lady in the pound I was beyond thrilled. She started out as a yellow Xweetok, and I learned that the Eventide Draik Morphing Potion was the cheapest option.

Draiphin - ♀ Maraquan Draik - CREATED
I had been missing the beautiful perfectness that is a Maraquan Draik since I had painted over Draiqh, so I made Draipin, which is a combination of Draik and dolphin to become the new face of an older character, but she's gone and made it her own. She was the 2nd new dragon in 2016.

Draisula - Halloween Draik - CREATED
I like villians, what can I say? Draisule is loosely based on Disney's Ursual from the little Mermaid. She's bad, has a great sense of style, and lots of magic to make things happen her way. She is one of the newest additions to the nest; but had been perculating for a long time.

Draityr - ♂ Brown Draik - CREATED
I made a dryad, so I had to make a companion satyr, right? He was hatched from a yellow egg and painted the same day. On dA, I have a huge composited character image where he's part goat, part human, part lion, and part dragon.

Draiyad - ♀ Woodland Draik - CREATED
Don't tell anyone, but Draiyad is one of my favorites. Her name is *dryad* and *draik* squished together, and as expected, her character is a wood nymph. She was created as a Blumaroo, but morphed almost immediately into her true form.

dragons_ - ♂ Darigan Scorchio - TRADED
Just after Thanksgiving 2020, I'd been feeling the 'new pet itch,' and had been trolling the PC looking for something to trade of my less inspired pets for, and stumbled upon this guy. He was shuffled a few times; but I was smitten. Unfortunately, he was shuffled into a permie home shortly after I discovered him. Regardless, I made a project page, and developed my *Dark Spyro* character for him. Come the end of Janurary, an NCCer saw my app and adopted out their Dari Koug to me, to attempt trading for my goal pet. Luckily, when I mailed the then-current owner of the Dark Dragon; they saw my project page, and accepted the same-tier trade; and now he's glued to my accounts.

Draickle - ⚧ Electric Draik - CREATED
Like some of my other pets, Draickle is based on a former pet I had years ago, an electric bunner. Although the character has changed some over the years, it was one of my favorites, and has been deepend some, but not yet uploaded to the site.

Draikili - ♂ Gold Draik - CREATED
Kili is my Sun Nymph, much like Apollo from mythology, he pulls the sun across the sky each day. He was created to be either a sibling or a companion to Draikyla. Draistral and Draism are other sky entities that I've made and they factor into both of their stories.

Draizurd - ♂ Tyrannian Draik - GIFTED
He is my lizard guy. His name is Draik and lizard pushed together basically. His mental capacity isn't as great since he's basically from paleolithic times. Draizurd was also a gift during my 'great transition' in 2016, and the paint brushes were about half as much as they are now (89k), but Pirate Draik Mophing potions were almost twice what they are now (200k). This is before I'd started playing Tudy or Ghoul Catchers (both had been released during my hiatus)

Dramata - ♀ Christmas Draik - TRADED
This beautiful lady is actually the result of my first foray into the PC's trading games. Her name is the plural form of 'drama' and I had bid on it without knowing that. I liked it, and had lost inspiration for my Dorian Grey character for my grey draik.

Dravant - ♀ Skunk Draik - CREATED
I made her to be a musician to go with Dramata; her name was meant to be like extravagant Draik, but instead is like devant+draik. Which works too. She was hatched from an egg and painted shadow first, then I changed my mind and painted over it with skunk in prepartion of another character I have planned waiting on slots.

Draifyre - ♂ Magma Draik - CREATED
I had originaly planned on painting him fire; hence the name, but I really enjoy the magma look on him, so I went with that instead. He was created as an Eyrie, and then morphed and ipped. (finding your magma pool time should be easier...)

Draikirella - ♀ Snow Draik - CREATED
Snow is actually one of my favorite colors, although I miss the old art for it. I do live in a place that sees snow for 7 months of the year, so that may have something to do with it. She was created as a Chia, and morphed then painted.
Ella is loosely based on an older character, but modified and improved. In her storyline, she is involved with one of my other characters, and the mother of 1 (soon to be 2 more; darn TNT delaying pet slots, lol.))

Draikirr - ♂ Ice Draik - CREATED
Draikirr is another one of my pets that kind of ran away with his story. He was hatched from an Ice Draik Egg, and has been spoiled with a Snowickle and a Flanikin. His look has changed a bit over time; but he comes from Fire and Ice (Magma & Snow) so shows that in his custom.

Draikisa - ♀ Draik Princess - CREATED
I had never owned a royal pet before Isa, but her eyes were definitely a huge selling point. (even if it does make customising a little harder.)
Her character has a royal background, but she takes a job after her parents are ousted as a Faerie Godmother, so she can help other Neopets.

Draikriel - ♀ White Draik - CREATED
Her name is Draik and Gabriel smooshed together, and she's one that I didn't expect to get as attached to as I have. She was hatched from a yellow Draik egg. She was yellow for about 2 years, when I revamped her slightly, and painted her white.

Draikslye - ♂ Draik Prince - CREATED
When I created this handsome guy, I was really into the MLP:FiM series, and he was kind of based on Prince Blueblood, Stratus Skyranger, and Commander Ironhead. He was created as a Moehog (for variety?) and morphed then painted. He inexplicitly, got involved with a white Draik who also has a Gallion steed.

Dragax - ⚧ Dimensional Draik - CREATED
I made her originally as a Grarrl, and it was a bad idea. She ate the first morphing potion I bought for her instead of being changed by it.... *facepalm* I then carefully USED a morphing potion on her and painted her dimensional to match the storyline for Dragox. Their culture doesn't see gender the same way our biology does, so 'she' is a very loose term here.

Draiconite - ⚧ Silver Draik - POUND RESCUE
I legit found this Pokemon misspell in the pound. I love making monochromatic customs with her, as she's one of the few colors of Draiks that don't have red eyes. She was morphed using a Pirate Draik Morphing potion and a silver paint brush. It took me FOREVER to find someone willing to trade their Fabled for GBCs...

Draisa - ♀ Ghost Draik - CREATED
The second Draik to join the family, her character was based on a Mummy Ruki I used to lend out, and most of her *base custom* is also modeled from that. She was morphed and painted after I made up her name. her *living name* was Billy. (A SuperNatural reference.)

Draism - ♀ Rainbow Draik - CREATED
When the last pet slot was released, of course I had to make more draiks. She was dreamed up when I realized I didn't have a Rainbow custom yet. (On DTI, I have at least one for every color of Draik available.) She was hatched from an egg (MALE, darn it!) and then painted Rainbow. I really want(ed) a picnic Cirrus, but I have no luck when it comes to the lab ray, so I have settled on a regular one. I want to get her a rainblug eventually.

Draistral - ♂ Blue Draik - CREATED
I had a sun nymph, a twilight nymph, and even a rainbow nymph. Of course I needed someone to tend the stars in the night sky. (My moon nymph is awaiting slots.) He was hatched from an egg, and painted by a default pb I still have in my SDB :D

Draithly - ♂ Transparent Draik - TRADED
He was custom created for a Spanish RW I traded away. He is the embodiment of death, which comes to all things. (But also change, which is a healthy necessity.)
